Par value. Par value is the face value, or named value, of a stock or bond. With stocks, the par value, which is frequently set at $1, is used as an accounting device but has no relationship to the actual market value of the stock.
Par value is the face value of the bond, the amount that is paid at maturity. For Treasuries, par value is usually $10,000, and par value for other bonds can vary. But bonds trade in open markets with prices determined by supply and demand forces. Ultimately, the price investors are willing to pay for a bond, and whether the interest payments are reinvested, will determine its effective yield.
